Did you solve your issue? I&rsquo;m planning to buy this board but your comment makes me hesitate. Was the board damaged? Was it a software issue?</p>Thesmug on DEV-11849 - SparkFun OpenSegment Shield - Red (20mm)Thesmugurn:uuid:d59c319e-f29f-7fc4-2cb3-cdb4e4f33b862013-10-17T21:36:37-06:00<p>I can&rsquo;t get this shield to work. The serial examples result in the center segments and decimal points being very bright, with the other segments being very dim. There is slight flickering on the dimmer segments. Here is an image of the issue: <a href="http://i.imgur.com/sv3yXCX.jpg" rel="nofollow" >http://i.imgur.com/sv3yXCX.jpg</a>. Does anybdy know how to fix this issue?</p>
